Description

This article was published within 36 hours of the publication of a national survey data, released by the UK's largest literacy charity Book Trust. The survey provided some sobering results in relation to UK parents' views and practices with digital media at home. In my article, I put these results in perspective with other key survey data in the field, including international trends in parents' media practices.The article was republished on several UK and US parent-oriented websites (e.g., Children's Media Foundation, Joan Ganz Cooney Centre) and its translated version on German netzpoliten.de. It has become a reference point for many teachers, parents and researchers interested in parents' use of media at home.
